LIQ Trio Grain Rice Bran Dishwashing Liquid 750ml

Trio was the first dishwashing liquid made in Korea, launched in 1966, and it is still the brand most Korean households recognise first. The Grain range, introduced in 2012, is the plant-derived line, and this is the rice bran version.

The cleansing agents come from grain rather than being purely petrochemical, which is the point of the range. That is what lets it cut grease off pans while staying mild enough that people wash up without gloves, and it is why the formula is also cleared for washing fruit and vegetables, not just dishes.

The foam is fine and rich rather than loose, so it gets into the corners of a pan and rinses off without leaving a film. The formula is free from synthetic colourants, phosphates and parabens. As a natural dish soap it sits at the gentler end of the category without giving up cleaning power, and a 750 ml bottle covers a household for a good stretch. As dish detergent goes, this is the one Korean shoppers buy out of habit rather than research.
